  1. 1. Assessment of Shoulder Biomechanics during Pull-up Techniques

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Författare :Mariah Sabioni; [2023]
    Nyckelord :strength training; biomechanics; motion analysis; shoulder; styrketräning; biomekanik; rörelseanalys; axel;

    Sammanfattning : CrossFit® has gained popularity as a functional training method that caters to individuals with varying levels of fitness, including those with little to no athletic background. Regardless, shoulders represent the highest injury rate in this sport, most frequently associated with pull-up variations. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Improving Objectivity and Reliability of Observational Risk Assessment Tools by using Technical Instruments

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :Cephas Charsmar-Etor; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Direct measurement instruments; Observational instruments; Body segments and postures; Inertial measurement unit; Wearable sensors;

    Sammanfattning : Ergonomic assessments to determine risks of work-related musculoskeletal disorders as well as to compare designs of work-tasks and workstations, are imperative for high sustainability and productivity in any given industry. Hence, assessment tools that can objectively and reliably capture postures, joint angles and muscle activities play very important role in properly determining risks relating to work and various tasks.

  3. 3. Can Feeding Amyloid Fibrils Trigger Amyloid Formation in C. Elegans?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Katarina Norrby; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Amyloid; AA amyloid; Amyloidosis; AA amyloidosis; C. Elegans;

    Sammanfattning : Amyloidosis are diseases caused by misfolded proteins that have transformed into extracellular insoluble amyloid fibrils. One type of amyloidosis is AA amyloidosis caused by AA amyloid and diseases connected are Rheumatoid arthritis and Tuberculosis. C. Elegans is a nematode used as a model organism and in this experiment. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Simulating Professional Dance with a Biomechanical Model of a Human Body

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Avdelningen för medicinsk teknik

    Författare :Sophia Cedermalm; Erik Sars; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Digital twin; Motion capture; OpenSim; Biomechanical modelling; Visualisation;

    Sammanfattning : A digital twin project is launched by the Integrative Systems Biology (ISB) research team and led by Gunnar Cedersund. The digital twin project is based on biological models of physiological processes, that can interact and be tailored for a specific person. However, the digital twin can currently not analyse movements of a human body. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Measurements of biomechanical workload onthe forearm during padel : a pilot study

    Magister-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Avdelningen för idrottsmedicin

    Författare :Rebecka Forsström; [2022]
    Nyckelord :electromyography; angular velocity; co-contraction; sport biomechanics; wearable technology;

    Sammanfattning : Padel involves repetitive and high-velocity upper limb movements, which can be associated with overuse injuries. There is a lack of evidence regarding injury prevention in padel and a necessity of developing and evaluating ways to monitor workload. LÄS MER
